Wow, that was well done.

John Gosling has a WoTW page covering older movies, radio & books: http://www.war-ofthe-worlds.co.uk/index.html

including George Pal's proposed TV series (of which some test scenes exist): http://www.war-ofthe-worlds.co.uk/war_of_the_worlds_tv_pal.htm

Wow, really well done!

May have to have another think about post-WotW & WotW2 scenarios.

Footage comes from a full film, it was broadcast on CBC, 2 - 3 years back, DVR'd it and
watched it a couple of times. It has also been on BBC and US TV.

“Conspiracy theory’s got to be simple.
Sense doesn’t come into it. People are
more scared of how complicated shit
actually is than they ever are about
whatever’s supposed to be behind the
conspiracy.”
